You know most Corsair PSUs are Seasonic, right? That only the CX series isn't up to par, and even then it's just comparing Silver to Gold?

It isn't that big a difference.
See, the problem with the 78* boards, is that "Have to" is followed by "Because my computer caught fire". The 78* boards are not up to par for the FX series at all.
Because when saying a 780ti > 2x 280X, and it doesn't look like a joke, you look stupid. Considering card standings are very much fact-based and not opinion based, there is very little room to joke, if any at all, so the undesired outcome happens a lot.

Besides that, I don't know about others in the thread, but I get about zero "he's joking" vibe from you, which doesn't help the situation when you say something as a "joke" with absolutely no context or reference to anything sarcastic or funny.

I don't think there is anything wrong with CX PSU's, I have 2 of them in the family and both are running like champs, both are CX 500's and they are running Phenom II Quad core CPU's, no overclocking but they have been flawless for at least a year now. But if you can get a Platinum Seasonic for so cheap why not.

I did a lot of research before settling on my HX850 a little while back. I do believe the HX series was built by CWT. This has been one of the better purchases I've made. Rock solid since I purchased it and steady volatages.

on another note:

Has / Is anyone having problems with IBT always failing after running the full run?

I've run ADMIN and everything... cant get the thing to tell me "You WIN"... not the end of the world... but annoying...
